Bed was very uncomfortable and very noisy. Pillows were too soft and had 2 nights of terrible sleep. None of the entertainment on the TV was working therefore was unable to watch ITV player or BBC iplayer. The shower screen only covers half of the shower therefore water spilled all over the bathroom floor leaving us with a wet bathroom. Parking is very unclear, asked more than 2 members of staff who did not know anything about parking. Unfortunately this was a waste of money and will not be staying here again.
